Fuel starves when drifting to the left.

Every time I drift to to the left and my fuel tank isn't prity full I go lean and my engine cuts. Does anyone else have this probably on there FC? Do I need to get a fuel cell or what?

yea dude you need a surge tank or keep it topped off.

recently, when i did my dual fuel pump, we cut and welded the tank. the new pump, return, and -8AN fuel line works great for fuel slosh. I have no idea what my fuel level is but i have not cut out once since the install

What year chassis? And what ecu? Chances are if you are runnin a s4 Tll ecu on an s4 n/a harness it could be the power steering wire going to the input of the knock box on the ecu. So when you turn the wheels the car acts up
